A lot more information than in these photos is needed to ID to species level - at least a photo of the whole plant, a good closeup of the type of hairs on a leaf, a photo of the entire leaf showing the length of the stalk in relation to the whole leaf, and a sideways photo of the seed head so we can count the bracts just beneath it. Oreomyrris eriopoda is very hairy, and has 10-15 bracts below the flower/ seed head, among other things. Your closeup of the seed head is great.
